[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 1057725, member: 55987"] From what I read on the net uBO in hard mode is not a replacement of DNS filtering otherwise there'll be no DNS filters around uBO filters at your machine so it's fatser than DNS filtering which occurs at a remote server. And this extends to every browser extension based ad blockers One good reason to keep uBO is its cosmetic filtering. The other is from a privacy point of view a browser extension might be better: filtering happens at your machine instead of a remote sever. Anyway it's not a bad idea to keep both as they complement each other since none can filter everything on the net even with your own uBO filters. [/QUOTE]
